Northern States: Perlis




Paddy field in Perlis


The road in Perlis was small. Yet, it could be quite tricky once you run into a paddy field. I took us half an hour to get in and out of my uncle’s house. You can hardly find highways here. But once you become familiar with the roads, every area in Perlis is just at your fingertips. Well, at least that was what my uncle told me. One of the attractions here is the Padang Besar, at the borders of Malaysia-Thailand. This is the place where you can find cheap stuff including apparels and toys. We went there and shopped just about anything. I even managed to get my trousers from RM40 to RM20. But as for the quality of the items bought, I couldn’t say anything about it. Make sure that you check your items before you even start bargaining.

After hanging around in my uncle’s house and Padang Besar, we headed down to Kedah. We came across a vast sugarcane field on our way there.

We've made it!
